Dr. Bob Hieronimus InterviewedAbout Baseball Hall of Famer Leon Day

Dr. Bob Hieronimus was interviewed for the new book The Call to the Hall: When Baseball's Highest Honor Came to 31 Legends of the Sport by Kevin Warneke and David Ogden. He shared the story of his friendship with baseball legend Leon Day and the dramatic hospital-bed celebration of his election to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1995. Like most Negro Leagues players, Major League Baseball had snubbed him by not electing him to the Hall of Fame, and after interviewing Day on 21st Century Radio®, Dr. Bob made it his personal mission to get him elected.
